Get ready to “Farmer Up!” and attend Commodity Classic, America’s largest farmer-led, farmer-focused convention and trade show, when it returns to San Antonio March 2-4, 2017.
Wade Cowan, a farmer from Brownfield who serves as chairman of the American Soybean Association and as a member of the 2017 Commodity Classic Grower Committee, said, “It doesn’t matter what you raise—corn, cotton, soybeans, sorghum, wheat or peanuts—attending Commodity Classic is guaranteed to raise your expectations for your farm. This is the one can’t-miss farm event of the year.”
Education is a hallmark of Commodity Classic. This year’s line-up of educational sessions includes topics such as grain marketing, risk management, cover crops, soil health, input efficiency, weed resistance and much more.
The trade show at Commodity Classic includes hundreds of companies, both large and small, featuring their best equipment, technology and innovation. The Commodity Classic schedule also includes inspiring speakers, new product presentations, panel discussions, entertainment and commodity association policy meetings.
“Commodity Classic is an energizing, positive environment with thousands of America’s best farmers all under one roof,” Cowan added. “You spend quality time among people who share the same thirst for knowledge and passion for agriculture that you do—and that’s bound to change the way you think about your farm.”
Established in 1996, Commodity Classic is produced by the American Soybean Association, National Corn Growers Association, National Association of Wheat Growers, National Sorghum Producers and Association of Equipment Manufacturers.
